this year for teacher gifts, i decided to attempt something new... book bags!
























i'm so proud of them! i think they turned out pretty great. the pattern for these bags came from the fabulous 


heather bailey

i cannot believe this year is over!! as always, it goes by so fast. in addition to wrapping up the school year, we are getting ready to go to san antonio for the weekend. michael's brother is getting married! ALL FOUR of us are in the wedding, so the weekend will be a bit of craziness mixed with lots of fun. 

michael and i will be celebrating 10 years of marriage! it's quite fitting that we will be headed to san antonio on our anniversary, because it was there that he proposed. life is just going by so fast!! 

i have to remember to soak it all in.

isaiah turned seven!!


goodness he's growing so fast!!! i cannot believe i have a 7-year-old. 
he's smart, athletic, fun, and loves to read. what a cool thing it is to get to be his momma :)


his bday party was at bodyworks waterpark. he had a joint party with his "girlfriend" lauren. jerrie was there taking lots of pictures. i think she even captured him with cupcake icing ALL OVER his face. literally. apparently amongst his peers, he is mr. entertainer. just like his dad.

shining moments

Isaiah is playing softball this year. 

I think we have found his passion. It is amazing to see this kid out there... he just comes to life. I think he enjoys the game more than any of his teammates. 

Next year we'll most likely be in little league. So basically we'll LIVE at the ballpark. But seeing him happy is more than worth it!

His photogropher aunt jerrie took tons of fantastic photos of him with her big fancy camera... 



Sarah had her preschool program...




She was a little bit shy... but did most of the movements she was supposed to. And what is cuter than a little girl on stage with her finger up her nose? Huh? Anyone?? No really. She was "that kid". But she WAS the cutest one up there hands down!

let's play catch-up

i've had all these images on my camera and not much time to actually transfer them onto my computer... much less this blog. 

so in the next couple of days, be prepared to learn a little about what we've been up to in the last several weeks


Arts Festival

this year's theme was 
Life, Lego Art, and the Pursuit of Happiness

a huge display of lego art was brought in... 




scuptures made entirely of legos!! way cool, huh?



look closely at the bike... the front is a real bike and the back is legos!


needless to say, isaiah and sarah spent the rest of the weekend building things with their legos. 

if i was a really good momma, i would have taken pictures of their lego art.
